Employer Transit Pass Programs

Why all downtown employers should enroll in transit pass programs:

• 
  Seventy-eight percent of workers in Downtown Minneapolis live within 15 miles of their workplace - a convenient distance for transit use
• As the hub of the transit system, Downtown Minneapolis is very well served by both bus and rail
• Employers can enroll in these programs for free
• When combined with a pre-tax payroll deduction, discount transit pass programs reduce employer payroll tax obligations
• Discount transit passes are becoming a standard benefit for employers located downtown
• Employers that subsidize transit pass programs qualify for a 30% Minnesota state tax credit on those dollars
• Employees who sign up can save over $600 a year in transit costs
• Higher transit use reduces traffic congestion, which promotes a healthier environment, regional economy and work-life balance for commuters.
